A basement renovation is a great way to improve the appearance of your home while also adding value. Many times, you can complete basement renovations in less than a month. Hiring a professional contractor is a great way to expedite the entire process while also ensuring that you are well-satisfied with the final results.
Here are a few of the main steps of renovating a basement.
#1 Framing
Framing usually takes less than five days and is the first part of a basement remodeling project. A contractor will remove walls to reshape the room while also providing additional framing for necessary equipment, such as gas and water lines.
#2 Electricity & Plumbing
The next stage in remodeling a basement is working on the electrical and plumbing outlets. Usually, this process takes between three to five days, depending on the complexity of the work. The electrical engineers and the plumber will need to perform various tasks to ensure that your basement has all of the necessary equipment for electricity and plumbing.
#3 Inspection Process
An inspector will check out your basement to ensure that everything is working properly without any potential violations. This process only takes one day, as the contractor can begin working on the next procedure once the inspection is complete.
#4 Installing Drywall
The first stage of installing drywall involves hanging the sheetrock. Once that is complete, the next step is to install the drywall and then the walls. Your contractors will also work on mudding and taping once the drywall is finished. It will take a day for the mudding to dry before another layer is added. Once this is done, the drywall is ready for texturing.
#5 Trimming & Painting Process
The trimming process is important in fixing the door and window casings. Usually, the trimming process takes between two to three days to complete. The next step is to paint your basement, as your renovators will work on sealing the walls. Normally, it only takes a couple of days to finish painting a basement.
